we're a family.

Around here…

The last couple days have been a lot of this:
and this:
Oliver woke up with a fever on Monday that lasted a couple of days. He didn’t want to do anything except cuddle and sleep. Honestly, besides being sad for him that he’s sick, I have really enjoyed all the cuddling and rocking. He is not typically a baby that sits still for any amount of time so it’s been kind of a treat!
He broke out in spots yesterday morning so it looks like he has roseola (baby measles). I kind of had a feeling that’s what would happen. I was telling Neil how it’s funny how things have changed over the past few years. When Seth had his first high fever we rushed to the emergency room twice and were horrified that they the doctors didn’t seem at all concerned. That fever was our first experience with roseola. Benji got roseola when he was a baby and Seth got it a second time at the same time. With our third baby we weren’t even fazed by the fever and knew what was most likely coming. Hey, we’re getting good at this parenting thing!
Anyway hopefully Oliver is all recovered soon. Although the cuddling is nice I could do a lot more in the day if he would let me put him down for a second!
